Footage has emerged of folks in the Msobomvu township in Butterworth helping themselves to a drink — or a case full — at the expense of some unlucky business owner. Scores of people can be seen descending on the truck carrying soft drinks.

Butterworth police have said that they have identified a handful of culprits and will make arrests as soon as the company presses charges.
